The latest installment in the coveted Yankees-Red Sox rivalry will take place in Yankee Stadium this week. The three-game series will host a tale of two teams, with the Yankees owning a comfortable six-game lead in the A.L. East while the Red Sox control last place in the division at 12 games under .500.

According to TicketIQ, Yankees tickets are average $179.29 at Yankee Stadium through the end of the regular season. Over the team’s three-game Yankees vs. Red Sox series, tickets own a secondary average of $108.33.
